A personal vision for Waze+
Given that Waze is in a tension with Google Maps and there is a new CEO with a background in tourism I have compiled a few thoughts.
Let me start out with some tentative abstract differentiators:
Google Maps is for drivers, Waze+ is for all others (too).
Google Maps is about how to get there, Waze+ is more about why to get there.
Google Maps is for the brain, Waze+ is for the soul.A.
To begin with I would like to see Waze much more individualized and stylish.
I’d like to express accurately which…1 vote -
To have a option for waze rider to report of summon officer
Waze riders got option to report any traffic police but its also very-very benificial/ useful for us delivery riders to report to location of any summon/fine officers as they never provide any parking for the delivery riders .

Car sentry
I would like to suggest a new feature that could enhance the security of parked vehicles and improve community-driven safety within the Waze app. The feature, which I call "Car Sentry," would allow users to register their car’s license plate within Waze. If anyone notices suspicious activity or an issue related to the registered vehicle (such as theft, damage, or an incorrectly parked car), they could quickly notify the owner through the app.
Key benefits:
Increased security: Users receive real-time notifications if their car is involved in a reported incident.
Community-driven safety: Wazers can help each other by…1 vote -
Making marking spots more easily
I live in Taipei, Taiwan. Information in Waze around Taipei is much less. I often see many important places not shown in Waze map, such as convenient stores and parking space. If we can mark it on map more easily, we can improve map in Taipei more quickly.

Waze ask if “Have you arrived at your destination?”. Very important in urban settings and with one-way streets!
Waze to ask “Have you arrived at your destination?” before stopping navigation. When searching for parking especially in urban locations and one-way streets you may drive past your final destination multiple times, and losing navigation can be very frustrating.

Road trip mode
We just drove 3200 km. It'd be nice to have a way to program the length of drive you prefer, with comfort stops (for kids/dogs). A way to program favorite restaurants, gas stations, etc. a connection to wiki info for points of interest or info about towns. A wildlife on highway hazard sticker. Bathroom rating system. How's that?

Cost-saving route suggestion with minimal time trade-off
"Smart Save" routing option that suggests routes that are up to a few minutes longer but result in a lower travel cost. - ideal for drivers who are flexible on time but want to save money on tolls, fuel, or parking.

Errores en navegación.
Hasta ahora me había orientado bien, pero el 29 de mayo en viaje a Jaén, me dirigí al INTERPARKING DE LA PLAZA DE LA CONSTITUCION y me perdió por Jaén, llevándome a un sitio donde era peatonal y no había salida alguna. Tuve que buscar un parking por mi cuenta y no se las calles peatonales que cruzaria (ya vendrán las multas). Un vez dejé el coche pude observar más tarde la entrada al citado Parking y era de absoluta comodidad para acceder a él. No me encuentro satisfecho con el resultado obtenido por Waze. Entiendo…

Option to turn off automatic restarting of route
How can I stop the app from automatically routing me from my current location to somewhere else that I am looking at for future reference?!? Trying to use the app with SpotHero to find parking in Philly where I will be moving to soon and keep getting routed from my current location to Philly 😭

A new camera type: Traffic offence cameras
In Hong Kong, we have "traffic offence cameras" (交通違例相機, in Chinese) that capture any cars pursuing an illegal manoeuvre, like crossing double-white lines that shall not be crossed, or unlawfully stopping or parking at no-stopping or no-parking areas.
May I know if Waze could add this type of cameras to the system? I believe these cameras are not exclusive to Hong Kong but present in many territories, including Japan, China, Taiwan and others. The issue currently in Waze is that the types of cameras are too specific, but quite oftenly there is just a camera to capture…

External App Shortcut
It would be good if users could add a shortcut to another external app on the map screen. I have a Reversing Camera app which I occasionally need to open if parking in a difficult space, so being able to open this quickly from the map screen would be EXTREMELY useful!

Improvement
I’m a regular Waze user and I really appreciate how the app helps me plan my drives. However, I’ve noticed there’s no option to fine-tune the arrival time in smaller increments—like adding an extra 5 or 10 minutes to account for parking or walking time after I arrive at my destination.
It would be incredibly helpful if a future update could include more flexible arrival time settings. This would let users plan for those little extra minutes we need after parking, ensuring we truly arrive on time.
Thanks so much for considering this suggestion! I think a lot…

About Map User Interference
I have a gentle suggestion onto the Waze map, can we add icons onto map like the Gmaps ? Eg. Petrol Pump, Parking Lots, Restaurants and Car Service Garages.... Everything related to driving.
I do not mean to add every icon which distracts us like residential building, religious places, shops etc. Only those related to driving.
The main reason behind this was to make it eye catching and easy to understand when driving so if someone is really needy, he/she can find it easy !
Also it will make map look attractive rather than just names typed over there.…1 vote -
lez
I bought a second hand car that’s not allowed in most Low Emission Zones. Is it possible to DISABLE going through LEZ, not even suggesting those routes?
In addition to that, would it be possible to give an alternative (as we call “randparkeren”): find a parking garage outside the LEZ and use public transport to access the LEZ?1 vote -
Bug
Is there a way to use motion settings or gps to recenter my location. Every time I’m driving with no distinction it loses connection and thinks I parked. I have to manually take my eyes off the road and finger the arrow on the bottom left side to recenter me. If only there was a way to know that I’m driving 🤔

Many streets closed and a few incorrect around Mercedes-Benz’s arena on game days
List streets as closed or unavailable on game days. 3 events in Atlanta this past Sunday afternoon, waze app was insisting I could go down closed streets, one street goes directly into a parking deck, not a thru street as listed, app would recalculate and take me to another closed street. After 3 different routes, I had to close waze app and wing it.

At Destination - Map Display Bug ?
When i reach a chosen "destination", the map display "shoots" off to a random location several miles away then sometimes asks me if I am stuck in traffic. Every single time. Is this not a bug?
Would it not be beneficial to keep the routing active and map accurate in case one has to circle for parking, to pickup / discharge passengers or if the actual address & location map is not exactly accurate?

Aviation theme
An aviation theme would be awesome! Having the ability to set your vehicle to different aircraft like general aviation, a private jet, commercial jet, or even a fighter jet!
Voice lines could be similar to air traffic control conversations. Being a normal mode of transportation, there are TONS of references available for voice, like arrival, departure, parking, fuel, etc. Crashes on route could be "delayed flights" :) 🛫
